YASH is one of my favorite online events. It tons of fun — like hunting Easter Eggs except you’re hunting for books. What’s not to love??? Be sure to leave comments along the way. We are all here eagerly watching you play the game and we love your feedback.

This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors…and a chance to win some awesome prizes! One lucky winner will receive a book from each author on the hunt on my team! But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will only be online for 120 hours!

Need more info: Go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page to find out all about the hunt. There are FOUR contests going on simultaneously, I am a part of the RED TEAM – but there are four teams: Red Team, Gold Team, Blue Team, Purple Team – each with 20 authors. You can enter one or all for another chance to win a different set of books! For links to all the authors participating and a full list of prizes up for grabs; go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.

Scavenger Hunt Rules:

Each YASH post contains a secret number (highlighted in the color of the author’s team). You should write this number and its color down! Hidden in this post, you’ll find my favorite number. HINT: the Greeks called it the perfect number. Another hint: mine might be bolded.

Collect the favorite numbers of all the authors on the RED team, and add them up.

We are also now featuring a bonus prize. We select a group of authors who have participated in the hunt many times and fans can add up their numbers as well to enter for a $50 Amazon gift card.

RED TEAM SCAVENGER HUNT POST:

I’m super excited to be hosting Brendan Reichs.

Meet Brendan:

“I was born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, where I still reside with my beautiful wife, mischievous son, and beautiful daughter. We also have two playful pit-bull mixes named Soldier and Flip, and a ferocious cat named Wrigley. It’s a full house. No complaints. I worked three long years as a litigation attorney before I jumped ship to co-write the Virals series with my mother, the great Kathy Reichs. After completion I began my new YA series: Project Nemesis. I also wrote The Darkdeep series with my best friend and co-author Ally Condie. I plan to keep on writing novels until they drag me kicking and screaming from my desk.”

Brendan’s book is:

CHRYSALIS

This is such an intriguing cover! “Twisty and unpredictable . . .” I can’t wait to read it!
And GREAT NEWS…if you win the Red Hunt Brendan is going to send you his WHOLE Nemesis series!! How cool is that?!?!?

ABOUT the BOOK

The 64 members of Fire Lake’s sophomore class have managed to survive the first two phases of the Program–and each other. Now, they alone have emerged into the dawn of a new era on Earth, into a Fire Lake valley that’s full of otherworldly dangers and challenges. Although staying alive in this broken world should force Min, Noah, Tack, and the others to form new alliances, old feuds die hard, and the brutality of the earlier Program phases cannot be forgotten. But being a team isn’t easy for the sophomores, and when they discover that they may not be alone on the planet after all, they’ll have to decide if they’re going to work together . . . or die together.
